The AJAr Foundation is a non-profit human rights and
civil liberties firm working to
quietly
enhance mainstream conditions of user privacy,
free expression, and access to information online. This mission is pursued by means of active
research and open developments in the realm of information security, and through a network
of secure file sharing and communications services that are free and open to the public.

Network

Membership

New users must be invited by an existing user—or staff—to join.
Contact for invitation/support.

Most network services do require a free
@ajar.org handle to use.
User safety is the top priority of this network, so we actively protect your identity:
No information about your personal identity or geographic location is requested—nor an
existing e-mail address, phone number, external user account, etc.—when establishing your
membership.

Anonymity

Anonymous use of hosted services is encouraged wherever it helps users exercise
their rights to privacy, free expression, and open education. Note that network
membership is still required to access some services, but does not entail
disclosure of true identities.

All services are accessible via this
Tor hidden service, including all non-Web services.
If you visit this page via the link above, you'll find a signed list of all current addresses.

Terms & Policies

Privacy Policy

No network traffic, access, or use data will ever knowingly be recorded or retained
for any service operated by the AJAr Foundation. All user information handled and/or
stored by the AJAr Foundation is encrypted such that neither the AJAr Foundation nor
any other unauthorized entity will be able to read or transmit that data in raw form.
No data will be shared with outside entities because that is technically infeasible to do.

The guarantees provided here are valid as written insofar as the underlying cryptographic
systems employed could reasonably be said to provide this security. For any user data that
will not be encrypted, there will be an explicit and clear disclaimer noting so, but this
typically would be where you expect it (e.g. communications over IRC).
